Contest Voting

I have entered my story of how I got engaged in a contest. The top 20 go to the next round. I figure what better way to get the word out than to share it with my xda friends? So, check out the following link and vote for our story. You can vote once per day from now until May 8th. Thanks in advance for your support!
JIC - Jewelry Information Center - Ultimate Proposal Contest

Just priming the off topic pump for those late night forum junkies! Happy voting!

Seeing as how you have been a member since 2008 and you only have 44 posts I would feel "used" if I voted for you. Good luck anyway.

Bummer. I don't necessarily find the need to post all the time and spam the development forums. There have been rare times that I can actually provide valuable input and when those times do occur, I post. Also, since I am not a very involved developer, I am not creating anything new. I am using the forums for the great information that is out there to tweak the past 4 or 5 phones I have had. That being said, I haven't run into many problems when doing the hacking so I, again, haven't had the need to post that something didn't work for me. It normally works just fine since I read the directions and follow it closely.
Regardless, no hard feelings in the slightest. Thanks anyway.

No apologies necessary. I have pretty thick skin. Thanks for your support.

If anyone is surfing the web today, feel free to show your support by voting. Thanks in advance!

Any voters out there?

Just tried to vote. Sorry man, I don't vote in things that make me sign in to do it. Even though it's just fb, I don't want to inadvertently sign up for things I don't want. I don't want the jewelry company spamming my fb. Otherwise I would.

Thanks for trying. I normally have the same sentiments. My plan is just to remove the app when the contest is done voting. Also, you could sign up for a contest account by providing your email. So far they haven't sent any junk email. I have a junk email address though for specifically places that I think might spam me.
Anyway, thanks for the try and comments. Her hand just had to get a little stronger and she is dealing with the strain.

We are moving on up! Keep up the voting to those who want to. I know it is a pain but your support is appreciated.

Just voted. Good luck

Is there a website for....yes

Hello,
Is there a website in which you can suggest words like: "4.5 inch" or "android 4.0" or "8MP camera" and then the site searches and finds smartphones that match the suggested words?
Example:
If I suggest: "8MP camera" , "Price range: €200-€300" , "android 4.0".
And now the website looks for a matching device. It lists the devices that match my suggested words and BAM I see it.
This is a serious question, so please don't say google.com or something.
Greetings

Yeah. I certainly wouldn't suggest that you put the words "4.5 inch €200-€300" into Google
Not sure you'd get the sort of results you'd want your girlfriend to know you were looking at

Try it!! The second result is for "Siege artillery in the American Civil War" - she might think you're planning to go on a murder spree or something. :silly:

you have to search the phone model name
searching" 4.5inch" won't get you anything

Here's a search with just display size at least 4.5"
http://goo.gl/fpG0g
You don't need a model name. Just search for your minimum specs.
(I didn't specify it had to be a phone, so that has tablets as well.)

Geekaphone also has a phone finder, you select a price range and some specs and you should have some good suggestions

I think because comparison threads are not allowed in XDA.
Thanks for the video in any case.

I have no interested in the Note 3 (to large, TW, and long waiting updates) but I watched the video anyway. Good watch. Thanks OP for posting.

True, while they are not allowed we still have other VS. threads in the N5 section that have not been closed so it looks like they are letting them stay.
I think they are great and don't understand the reason why XDA would lock them anyway. If people do not care about a certain phone vs. another don't read it. It is not like the titles are misleading like so many other worthless threads that get opened here.

Probably because few are as well thought out and presented as yours. Most are juvenile and pointless. Yours is pretty good though. Thanks!

One Plus One invite failure on my part

So, about 10 minutes ago I got a invite for a 64gb sandstone gray opo. Being all excited, I claimed the invite, however I failed to check my finances beforehand and I've just now realized I'm 200 bucks short. Do you awesome people know of any way I can unclaim and give this invite to someone else?
Many thanks.

I couldn't help but notice the only posts you had were on this thread. And you're also a brand new account who saw my thread in the off topic sub forum. No offense meant, but that seems a bit strange. Before I give you my info, may I request an explanation of some sort?

There's not 1000 apps that are free for a limited time at the same time?
You can report it, that's fine. If I broke any rules by posting a link to a Free app, that I don't even own, sorry.. The moderators have the right to delete this thread if they see fit.

You know what man, you're out of line and I'm going to give you some advice. This type of attitude is not what this site is for. Keep scrolling if it bothers you so much. No rules have been broken. Before you try to police threads for no reason you should re-read the rules yourself.
If this is the type of thing that you plan on bringing to the table with regularity you may not be around long out here, nor will anyone offer support for when you need it. And one day you will. We all do, myself included. So you may wish to consider being nice to people so you don't get a bad rep for being "that guy" that no one wishes to deal with. Trust me that's not a fun place to be. No one wants to be that guy.
Remember this is a fun hobby we all share so there's no need to spoil things and take the fun out of this for people when they've done nothing wrong. He's made a thread in a relatively inactive section regarding something he felt like sharing that he found helpful. There's no harm in that at all. It's kind of the backbones of the site if you think about it.
